Pirrrrrrrr = Pir^8

Fair.

No internet means the gullible masses will remain uninformed and vulnerable to manipulation.

The GOP wants a solid foundation of uneducated poor to exploit as the base workforce and voter base.

Cheap idiots to fuel their companies.

I need a documenter!

I have a head full of stuff that hasn’t had time to be documented, and being a single point of knowledge isn’t job security, it’s a major risk.

My code gets documented. But so much infrastructure is just held in my head as senior SysAdmin. Wherever possible I just have a ride-along “up-skilling” (works like a RAID mirror for my brain).

The car was the slow part, I have an S23+.

The wrestling was figuring out getting BT audio ONLY.

And until I reset the head unit to factory previous users, contacts, radio stations and destinations were all stored there.

Not great on a rental car.

Why not both, M’lud?

Not the whole phone obviously. But syncing all my contacts, recent calls etc.

Repressed self hatred.

The whole projecting thing that people like this do.

Doesn’t even put “Switch” in the pictures

Bro couldn’t even clean his room in 3 days.

Every site in the early 2000s had a left nav menu

I’m happy with a Bluetooth connection to the stereo. I have maps on my phone.

Fuck carplay/android auto in the ear.

I hate getting a rental car and I just want my music, but it tries to hijack and download my whole phone.

I want to get in, connect my phone and go. Not 20 minutes wrestling it for control.

Digital displays are fine. It’s just a display. But controls should be manual (buttons, dials, etc) that can be operated with eyes on road.

I remember a PC (286) brought in for repair that had blown a fuse in the power supply.
Nothing was visibly wrong, so I replaced the fuse and jokingly said, “Well it’s either going to work, or it’s going to explode”.
I turned it on and the CPU promptly blew itself to bits. Literally “Bang” and the CPU was a few shards stuck to the pins (286 was soldiered directly to the main board).

People make mistakes, that’s why we automate things. If a system relies on a human not making mistakes it is doomed to fail eventually.

Saving manually should be a feature, but autoaave should be on by default these days, unless 30+ years of people losing work due to not hitting “save” manually has taught us nothing.

Crashes happen. Errors happen. Pets and children happen. Any major document editor should be able to auto save and replay a very long history of actions.

Improve the system, because you can’t improve people with a code patch.

Have there been? Link them.

Because I call bullshit on that

I’ve always struggled with it. Often people let it degrade into a line with tiny bumps, and it becomes illegible.

Personally I am Autistic and have ADHD, so the fine motor control is hard to manage. I can’t write cursive neatly, but if I slow right down I can “draw” cursive.

Growing up undiagnosed when I did, has developed a hardy set of calluses across the knuckles from teachers hitting them with a ruler for bad pen grip or messy writing.

Most of those fuckers are dead or in diapers now.

WQ = Write and Quit Q! = quit and do nothing else

Multiline cut, copy, paste is where I forget commands.

“Your maximum is 7.2 shots per day.” (Espresso)

My typical day is 8-12 shots + Concerta for ADHD.
